write a function to describe each statment buying apples for $.89 a lb
i got y=.89x
Looks correct to me.
TOTAL COST = 0.89 * POUNDS
are you thre
To write a function that describes the statement "buying apples for $0.89 a pound," you can create a function in any programming language that takes the weight of the apples as input and calculates the total cost based on the price per pound.
Here's an example in Python:
```python
def calculate_apple_cost(weight):
price_per_pound = 0.89
total_cost = weight * price_per_pound
return total_cost
```
In this function, `calculate_apple_cost` takes the `weight` of the apples as an argument and calculates the total cost by multiplying the `weight` with the `price_per_pound`. The function then returns the `total_cost`.
You can use this function by calling it and passing the weight of the apples you want to buy as an argument. For example:
```python
apples_weight = 2.5 # weight of apples in pounds
total_cost = calculate_apple_cost(apples_weight)
print(f"The total cost of buying {apples_weight} pounds of apples is ${total_cost:.2f}")
```
The output will be:
```
The total cost of buying 2.5 pounds of apples is $2.23
```
This function can be easily modified to suit different programming languages or incorporate additional logic as needed.
